I've got a T3 in .25-06 and have had the same shooting experience as you! I haven't shot any handloads through it, but it shoots the 120gr Federal Fusion's the best of the factory ammo I've put through it. Don't know the exact grouping off the top of my head, but they were all MOA or a shade under.
I made a great shot on a buck this fall in Kansas. It was only about 250 yds, but I had a VERY small window to shoot through and just held right on and the buck never took another step. The Fusion's dropped him right in his tracks. One of the very few deer that I have dropped in their tracks.
Yep, I'm a believer in the T3's!
